Here is a bit of more Classic Sebring information from our friends at Vintage Motorsport Magazine:

Racing Stars and Cars Ready for Inaugural
Classic 12 Hour at Sebring

Sebring, FL -- Racing champions of the past and present, and a hefty lineup of legendary race cars from the last 50 years are now at Sebring International Raceway for Historic Sportscar Racing's first-ever Classic 12 Hour at Sebring that starts today (Dec. 1) and runs through Sunday.

Officially titled the Classic 12 Hour at Sebring, Pistons and Props, presented by the Alan Jay Automotive Network, this weekend's event pays homage to the iconic Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring that celebrates its 65th running March 18, 2017.

Modeled after the popular Classic 24 Hour at Daytona presented by IMSA, which was run for the first time in 2014 and 2015 on the road course at Daytona International Speedway, the Classic 12 Hour will see HSR competitors from across the globe race in tribute to the grueling half-day Sebring event.

Mass will be driving a classic 1969 Ferrari 365GTB/4 Daytona while Wallace returns to the same Rogers Motorsports 2005 Audi R8 LMS he co-drove to victory in the inaugural Classic 24 Hour in 2014 with Doug Smith.

Classic 12 Hour competition will be divided between six distinct and period-correct Run Groups, each showcasing different eras of race cars, many of which were raced in the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring in their prime.
